Journal entry by Randi Hittle —

Coming home from Fargo 2 weeks later to find glucose levels high spent 3 days in the hospital in Sauk Centre to get that under control, worked at that at home until Thanksgiving.  That day things changed where he couldn't walk or get off the chair. Took Randy to the ER in Sauk Centre Sunday night Nov 26 for an evaluation to find 3 more spots in his brain. He was then hospitalized for 3 days. He is now currently in hospice care as of Nov 29. 


Thank you everyone for the continued prayers for Randy and the family.
